I have a very anxious neighbour who I often find challenges me to have a lot of patience. The other day I ran into her in the driveway and she stopped me to tell me some of her concerns about our moving truck arriving in a few weeks. She was very distressed even though I was reassuring her that the truck would not damage the driveway. She eventually started sharing that she was also very stressed at work and was deeply missing her mum coming up to Christmas. I asked if I could give her a hug and she ended up just sobing in my arms. I then asked if I could pray for her and she agreed. We then spent about an hour just sitting on my porch talking about her mum. I knocked on her door a week later to give her an update about the moving truck. She told me that since I prayed for her she had been feeling so much more at peace about everything going on in her life. I was able to share with her that that peace comes from Jesus.
